Figure shows the intensity-wavelength relations of X-rays coming from two different Coolidge tube. The solid curve represents the relation for the tube A in which the potential difference between the target and the filament is `V_a` and the atomic number of the target material is `Z_A`. These quantities are `V_beta` and `Z_beta` for the other tube. Then,

A

`V_A gt V_B , Z_A gt Z_B`

B

`V_A gt V_B , Z_A lt Z_B`

C

`V_A lt V_B , Z_A gt Z_B`

D

`V_A lt V_B , Z_A lt Z_B`
